GRYPHON ELAN DII G26 36.5

The Gryphon Cobra DII G26 is a senior field hockey stick built around Gryphon's DII bow, the mid-point of the brand's curve range that stays flat enough for an easy first touch while still offering whip lower down towards the head. It sits as one of the more accessible sticks in the Cobra family, better suited to players developing their stick skills than to those chasing the sharpest, most advanced curves in Gryphon's range. The G26 head keeps the working area close to the ground, useful for trapping and quick release in tight areas of the pitch. It's a universal stick, playable outdoors on turf or brought indoors, and comes in two senior lengths, 36.5 and 37.5 inches.

The Gryphon Striker Pro25 sits a step up from the standard Striker line, built for senior players who want a more performance-focused field hockey stick without going all the way to Gryphon's Tour range. Pro25 marks the specific bow and build used across this model, distinct from the DII profile found on Gryphon's entry-level sticks, and G26 keeps it consistent with the rest of the Striker family in feel. Listed as a universal stick rather than an indoor-only build, it's suited to players who move between outdoor turf and indoor sessions with the same stick. Two lengths are available, 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch, giving most senior players a workable fit. At this price point it's aimed at club and representative players looking for a genuine step up from a basic straight or low-bow stick, without the outlay of Gryphon's top-tier Pro or Tour models.

The NKD Supreme 30 is the entry point into NKD's Supreme range, a low bow field hockey stick priced for senior players who are still building their game at an intermediate level. Low bow sticks like this one sit the curve further up the shaft than a mid bow, giving a flatter face for straightforward hitting and passing while still helping with drag flicks. At 115 EUR it's the most affordable stick in the Supreme family, a sensible option for a club player who doesn't need the extra construction of the 50 or 70 models yet. NKD supplies it in 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch pairs, two of each size per batch. It's built for outdoor pitches - grass surfaces - rather than indoor hockey, so it suits players training and competing on a full-size pitch.

The NKD Zeme 30 is a mid bow field hockey stick for senior players at an intermediate level, sitting between NKD's low bow Supreme range and the deeper curves of the Supernova sticks. A mid bow keeps the curve roughly in the centre of the shaft, giving a balance of hitting power and drag flick control rather than leaning hard into one or the other - a sensible choice for a player who hasn't settled on a specialist style yet. It's built for outdoor pitches, grass or water-based turf, with a construction NKD positions as able to take regular training use. Sizes run 36.5 inches and 37.5 inches, two sticks at 36.5" and three at 37.5" per batch. At 115 EUR it's priced in line with the entry-level Supreme 30, making it a straightforward alternative for players who prefer a mid bow over a low one.
